Boards of Canada style and a remix

I've done three new tracks this weekend. First up is Dangermouse, a weird experimental peice, cant really explain it. I was aiming for noise mixed with angular beats.

Secondly I accidentally created a Boards of Canada style of track in Udea Man Tarinn. I found some old soundfonts I'd assembled back on my old pc in 1999 and realised I could use a plugin called Paax to play them back. Its pretty basic but seems to work to my ears.

Lastly. Eventuality Remix is a remix of an old Logic track I did in 2003 I think. it was originally aimed at TV companies but i got nowhere. So I thought the vocoder would be cool to sample when I refound this track the otherday and began loading up chunks of this mix into 3 different Impulse instruments. I aldo loaded up a couple of Simplers with some single instruments I'd recorded of the original track.

Anyway, enough back story babble, you can find them all in my Three Travellers link below. :wink:

Angular beats? I just got done listening to Dangermouse, its slow strange and defintely at an angle. I like the sound though, the noise was nicely used. Was this all done with ableton? or any hardware.

Hi there! The beats were all done inside Live 6 via loading up my own samples (varioius sources that had gone through things like compression and even a sherman filterbank). For noise I used the V Station and something called a FabOne I think. I've also used a free drum synth that came with a magazine iirc. :D
